Smile
Grew up in my mommas house
Little place on the hill in the west of town
We were never rich but we felt like it
We got by just fine
Waking at the break of dawn
Sitting by the door waiting for my dad to come
My brother and I never had a say
Son, pack your things and bring all your clothes
I know things are tough now but you'll be happier with two homes
Don't be sad you'll have all you need
Cause I've got you and you've got me
You tell me you need something to believe in
Maybe I could be your superhero for the evening
You can be down, and pout for a while
But things will get better so, please just don't forget to smile
Grew up feeling so alone
Never knew who to trust in a broken home
Had to fight my demons by myself
Cause I had nobody else
Didn't want the world to see
All the problems that I'm facing in therapy
Cause life don't stop for any single man
It's hard to think the old days are gone
Some problems are too complex to fit into one song
Don't be sad the courts will agree
That I've got you and you've got me
You tell me you need something to believe in
Maybe I could be your superhero for the evening
You can be down, and pout for a while
But things will get better so, please just don't forget to smile
All the tears and sleepless nights
All the wrongs that make me write
All the times I asked myself if I'm the reason they still fight
A man can only act so tough
Don't you think I've had enough
You tell me you need something to believe in
Maybe I can be the one that changes how you're feeling
You can be hurt, and scarred for a while
But things will get better so, please just don't forget to smile
